MUMBAI - Jateen Trivedi, vice-president and research analyst, commodity and currency, at LKP Securities, said the following on the Reserve Bank of India's third bi-monthly monetary policy statement for the financial year 2026-27 (Apr-Mar) detailed Wednesday:
The RBI's decision to keep the repo rate unchanged at 5.25% has reinforced confidence in the Indian rupee by signalling policy stability and confidence in the domestic economy. Along with the RBI's improved 6.7% GDP growth forecast, lower inflation outlook, and the recent decline in crude oil prices, the rupee has strengthened to around 95.20–95.08 against the US dollar. Going forward, sustained FII (foreign institutional investor) inflows, softer crude prices, and a stable dollar could keep the rupee biased towards appreciation, although global geopolitical developments will continue to be closely monitored.
